What is Recapext?

Recap is an open‑source Chrome browser extension that lets users highlight any portion of a webpage and receive a concise summary powered by ChatGPT. It offers flexible model selection, allowing users to choose the ChatGPT webapp model or an OpenAI API model, and supports custom API hosts for enterprise deployment.

The extension removes sticky panels on chat.openai.com for a cleaner view and includes density‑chain support to control summary length. Researchers, students, and professionals can quickly extract key insights from academic papers, news articles, or industry reports without leaving their browsing session.
